Started as a comics editor

Chapter 155 ANF
During this period, the number of registered users of ANF is still increasing, but the increase is not as exaggerated as when the new version of FGO was announced.

And problems began to emerge.

Although the content uploaded by users is very interesting, old 2D fans obviously still have the need to watch anime and comics.

But the problem is that these two sections of the website currently only contain content from the FATE series.

no way.

Users can only go to other copyrighted websites to watch the animation, or buy magazines to read the comics, and then come to ANF to discuss.

But ANF doesn't have the copyright, so many scenes can't be edited out.

This is very troublesome.

Although users will not stop using ANF because of this, it is indeed a pity.

Many people have been discussing this matter recently.

"What a shame! It would be great if ANF had the copyright to the animation. It would be even better if they had comics to read. That way, I wouldn't have to go to those mainstream video websites. I'm getting more and more fed up with ads, especially after using ANF."

"Yeah, I heard ANF was acquired by Utopia? Please, please sell the copyright!"

"That feels terrible. Utopia obviously acquired ANF for the game. Didn't you see the overwhelming publicity for the new version? And now the promotion period for the new version has passed. They're probably still internally discussing the future development of the website. How could they buy the copyright for you so quickly?"

"Yeah...Tohsaka Rin's account hasn't been updated yet! Damn it! Her follower count is almost reaching the top of the site! That game video is almost becoming the treasure of the site! Why don't they strike while the iron is hot! Keep posting videos! They definitely haven't thought about the future development of this website, but I sincerely hope that Utopia can maintain the characteristics of this website - more anime!"

"Have you ever considered a possibility? It's not that we haven't thought it through, but Utopia is a makeshift team. We've thought of many things, but haven't had time to move forward yet."

"That's impossible. FGO is so profitable now, and Avalon has been hiring on the official website recently... And those popular things can't be created by one person, right? How can they come up with something but not be able to move forward? Take Tōsaka Rin for example, why not just hire a voice actor? Even if the animated image is a little worse, having the voice actor come out to interact is fine!"

"Yes! Where's my second video of Tousaka Rin! Why isn't it out? And here's my third-rate teacher's new work!"

"Damn it! I really want to watch anime and manga on ANF while watching virtual beautiful girls play games."

"I believe in Avalon! They understand the second dimension! They will definitely not let us down."

"..."

Su Deqiang sat in front of the computer, watching other users' discussions and also made a comment.

Then he looked at the people who expressed their opinions and gave thumbs up to each one.

to be frank.

He also wants to see anime and comics on ANF.

It can even be said that he cares about this more than native ANF users... After all, he got into FGO because of "Fate/Zero".

But what a pity...

Su Deqiang sighed, then exited the relevant topic discussion page and clicked on the newly added section after the ANF revision.

There is only Fate related content above.

It would be great if the animation and comics sections of this website could be developed.

As he thought about it, he went back to the homepage and refreshed the website.

But as soon as the page was refreshed, a picture with striking colors suddenly appeared in the scrolling popular recommendation window in the upper left corner of the website - a high-contrast collision of blood red and metallic silver-gray, and a man with chainsaw blades extending from his limbs and head stood in the center of the picture.

Like an out-of-control and violent killing machine.

Very eye-catching.

[Blood and flesh fly! Chainsaws roar! Sanliu Sensei's new work—"Chainsaw Man"! Officially serialized!]

"...?"

Su Deqiang looked at the picture on the popular recommendation window and slowly put a question mark in his mind.

What the hell? Speak of the devil!

He hasn't reacted yet.

Brush it.

Pictures scroll.

The next picture appeared before my eyes.

This time, it was the website's two poster girls, striking a celebratory pose, with the text prominently displayed above: [Official Anime Completion Plan! — The right to purchase anime is yours!]

"?"

When Su Deqiang saw this scene, he slowly put a question mark in his mind again until he scrolled to the third picture.

He suddenly realized what was happening, and in ecstasy, he grabbed the mouse and rewound back to the two pictures he had just seen, then clicked on the first one. [Old Anime Archaeology Project Launched——]

Our coffers are fully charged! But which show should you buy? You decide! Cast your vote!

[Activity Rules…]

Su Deqiang looked at it carefully, and then showed an expression that said, "As expected."

ANF ​​is going to buy anime!!
Although we are only talking about the completion of the old anime now, we haven’t mentioned the new anime yet!

But you can tell from the activity rules that ANF is very attentive. It does not directly throw out its own options and let users choose.

Instead, ANF users are asked to nominate first.

Then, the second stage is the regional voting, which is divided into three regions: player nominations, underdogs, and editors' recommendations.

At that time, the fifteen dramas with the highest votes will become the first batch of official animations of ANF.

It can be said that their wishes are fully respected.

...Although it is currently limited to old episodes!

But this is a successful first step!
Isn’t the animation coming?!
Su Deqiang looked at the description on the page and felt excited thinking that he would be able to watch the anime on ANF later.

really.

Avalon will not disappoint!

Oh, and there are comics.

He thought of something and went to the homepage again, where he found the chainsaw man.

but.

Click on the image.

After jumping to the comics section.

However, Su Deqiang's attention was attracted by the banner advertisement at the top of the comic section.

【Original Comic Contest Launched! 】

[Upload your creative ideas and share a million-dollar creative fund! Excellent works will be directly signed to our site! Help you debut as a cartoonist! ]

...another event.

But this activity is aimed at comics.

Although Su Deqiang doesn't know how to draw comics, he still clicked on it and took a look at it with interest because of this series of actions.

And after watching it.

He showed a look of realization.

really.

This is to attract other cartoonists to serialize in ANF...

As an old reader, he has some understanding of the manuscript payment situation in the comics industry.

So when he saw that the series was officially serialized and the website offered a manuscript fee starting at 300 per page, his eyes became red.

This seems to be lower than print media.

After all, the current mainstream comic magazines have around 450 pages per page.

But there are instructions below!
This is just the beginning! Furthermore, when serializing comics on ANF, cartoonists are only required to draw a minimum number of pages. This means you can't draw too little, but there's no upper limit. If you're really good at it, you can even reach 80 pages!

This is much freer than the strictly restricted comic magazines!

If the comics are good enough, the artist can license the IP to Avalon's games and earn royalties and... a share of sales!
In other words, if one of the comics is popular, the characters may become characters in FGO! The income from the card pool will be distributed to the cartoonists according to a certain ratio!
And now the popularity of FGO...

Who wouldn’t be moved by this!

Not to mention, there are bonuses for submitting articles now!

Tsk tsk tsk!
Su Deqiang looked at the page in front of him and kept exclaiming in amazement.

He had a premonition.

ANF ​​is going to be completely reborn... rising!
